Watterson was instrumental in getting "Zachary" added to the official name of the camp. Of the 16 Cantonments built, Camp Zachary Taylor is the only one that includes the full name of the individual for which it was named.
Maurice Dunn was the Chief Correspondent and Editor for the Courier-Journal at Camp Taylor, and he oversaw the publishing of the "Trench and Camp" paper, which covered all of the news and activities that took place at the cantonment.
